LaRosa didn’t see it? Hannity’s not buying it.
Fox News’ Sean Hannity cut off former Biden special assistant Michael LaRosa on Monday as he tried to defend the former president’s mental fitness, bluntly telling him he was “full of crap.”
“Michael, you’re going to come on this program, and you’re going to look America in the eye, and you’re going to tell us that you did not see any cognitive decline in Joe Biden? Because we saw it. We chronicled it starting in 2019,” Hannity said. “You’re going to tell us that?”
“Well, I am because I’ve been very consistent about that, Sean, with all of your colleagues on all of the Fox News programming since I left the White House at the end of 2022. That my three years — ” LaRosa said, before being cut off by Hannity.
“Michael, let me interrupt you,” Hannity said. “I don’t believe you. I think you’re full of crap. Let me be honest. Let me be straight here. We play — we have tape after tape after tape. I could spend the next hour.”
“We spent an hour on Friday playing him struggling, shaking air, not knowing where to go, talking to dead people. He could barely utter a sentence,” Hannity added. “He was a shell of his former self. Now, either you don’t have eyes to see or ears to hear or you’re just, you know, politically blinded. If I’m going to be charitable or just a political hack. But you can’t say you didn’t see it. I don’t believe you.”
LaRosa, again, attempted to push back.
“OK, so, Sean, you have the highest rated programming on Fox News, on the highest rated cable network. In 2019 and 2020, the American people saw the same thing, had the same access that you did,” LaRosa said. “He still won by seven million votes and has the most votes ever received by any president in American history. I’m not here to defend the cover-up.”
Hannity pressed LaRosa again, asking if he noticed Biden’s decline during the 2024 debate against President Trump. LaRosa admitted, “yes,” adding it was the first time he—and “many people”—saw clear signs of Biden’s mental struggles.
“I don’t believe any of you. I just don’t believe it. I think you’re so politically biased. You can’t see through. You hate Trump so much you can’t see through the lens of politics,” Hannity said.
